‘Red Tide’ is an alternate history novel written by Thomas Scott exploring a world in which Nazi Germany was defeated by 1944, losing the Second World War. Banned in Nazi-controlled Europe, it gained great popularity in the west and elsewhere, and despite controversy on its historical plausibility, it is well-regarded as one of the most well-researched and well-written alternate history books ever.

The novel is split into 3 stories, each at a different point in time following the same protagonist, a Canadian soldier.

The first takes place in 1944 in eastern France during the closing stages of the war, describing the arrival of large numbers of American troops for the final push as in the First World War, and the protagonist’s horror as news trickles out from the Eastern Front about what would come to be known as the ‘Jewish Genocide’.

The second story takes place in occupied Germany after the war’s end, describing the effort to suppress Nazi terrorist activities and news of the execution of Adolf Hitler after being tried of crimes against Humanity.

The third and final story takes place in British Malaya, during the Malayan uprising which still takes place, describing difficult jungle warfare by the forces of the Commonwealth and the Franco-British Union against communist rebels supported by the Soviet Union. It ends with a reflection of the declining power of the west as the news reaches the protagonist that the USSR has detonated its first atomic bomb, something only the United States and the Franco-British Union had so far achieved.
